Throughout the month of July, participants can run, or walk, at their convenience to help raise funds for Community Housing Network.

Community Housing Network (CHN), a nonprofit organization providing housing resources and affordable housing support throughout Oakland and Macomb Counties, hosts its first Virtual Run for a Cause. Throughout the month of July, participants can run, or walk, at their convenience to help raise funds for the work that CHN does throughout the year.

“We can’t come together right now, but we can work together to make a difference for the people we serve!” said Lisa Fuhr, Community Housing Network Special Events Manager. “You can choose your route, length and walk or run at your convenience while helping us to continue to provide vital housing resources and affordable housing options to our communities.”

The event will run July 1 through July 31. Registration fee is $30 per person or $100 for families of 4 or more (within the same household) to participate. Everyone who registers as a participant will receive a finisher’s medal! For a step by step guide on how to get involved, communityhousingnetwork.org.
